Tue, 16 Oct 2018 22:09:44 +0000http://www.tisrael.org/?p=26971#comment-22405Very well written, both for those on the fence about their vote and those voting yes. I hope it convinces those who who going to vote No to change their mind. I have several friends at various stages in the transgender process and I’ve recently begun to think of them and this so called “bathroom bill.” I personally would feel weird if I, as a female, was told I could not use that restroom anymore and always had to use the male’s.

Mon, 13 Aug 2018 16:30:37 +0000http://www.tisrael.org/?p=21240#comment-11866Kudos to Kathy Weinman, our community’s chair for Criminal Justice Reform! As Dru mentioned above, these candidates for District Attorney must know that our citizenry is not indifferent to the way they go about their business, particularly when it comes to the MORAL ATROCITY that is mass incarceration, particularly of people of color. The Jewish community will not leave our values outside the voting booth; we will not “check the luggage” of the Exodus narrative outside that booth when we consider which candidate will be liberators and lovers of our age-old journey from slavery to freedom to responsibility. This is no time for business as usual, and our candidates for DA have every opportunity to demonstrate moral leadership, on August 23rd when they answer to our 40+ communities of faith!

Thanks also for the links to the earlier debates and to the reminder about the upcoming event on August 23.

If you are able to join TI clergy and congregants on August 23 at the GBIO Electoral Primary Action, your presence will make a difference. Together we will ask each candidate if they will enact policies to ease the injustice of mandatory minimums and unaffordable bail, and assure transparency of data on charges and disposition and race. You will have the knowledge to cast your vote and they will know what you are looking for in a DA. Please let me know if you can be there. Drucgreenwood@msn.com
